Can anyone advise me where I might start looking to modify a node so it

must be a routine that accepts requests for further processing, and one
it could call to send a rejection. I want to try this not least to see
if NGR routing will actually favour this narrow area, over nice, rapid
rejections everywhere else, and whether my node's ability to find data
in this keyspace will improve. (I have previously put forward the
unsubstantiated theory that NGR will only produce specialised routing
when this has speed advantages over searching the whole network through
as many fast nodes as possible - so I don't expect my node's
specialisation to be sustained after switching off this gate, I think
this would require either a completely naive network with no data or
routing info, or a large proportion of nodes to be seeded with an
arbitrary specialisation for NGR to build on. However, as no one
important agrees this is a possibility, I just want to try one node and
see what happens.)
Try freenet.node.Node, the function acceptRequest().
The difficulty I might have with this is illustrated by the fact I
always thought Java was an interpreter - but apparently the source code
for Fred needs to be compiled in some way - so can someone also
recommend a free compiler to go from CVS to the constituents of
freenet.jar?
You can use Sun's JDK... it's not Free Software, but it is freely
downloadable from their site... Otherwise jikes maybe, but you'll need
to use Sun's VM for now anyway.
